Abstract The experiment was conducted on a farmer's field near Bhavnagar (Gujarat, India) during the Rabi season of 2008–2009 to study effect foliar applications Kappaphycus alvarezii and Gracilaria edulis sap growth yield response wheat var. 'GW 496'. Three sprays both saps were applied at rate 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0% (v/v) along with water as control different stages crop. It found that grain increased significantly by 19.74% 13.16% for plants receiving 7.5% 5.0% concentrations K. G. sap,...
Tidal marshes store large amounts of organic carbon in their soils. Field data quantifying soil (SOC) stocks provide an important resource for researchers, natural managers, and policy-makers working towards the protection, restoration, valuation these ecosystems. We collated a global dataset tidal marsh (MarSOC) from 99 studies that includes location, depth, site name, dry bulk density, SOC, and/or matter (SOM). The MarSOC 17,454 points 2,329 unique locations, 29 countries. generated...
Jatropha Methyl Ester (JME) is a potential biodiesel in India. Although high quality EN 14214 grade production from curcas has been demonstrated by us for the first time, leading to surge of interest worldwide, large‐scale cultivation plant with seed productivity critical overall success. The core processes are carried out under ambient conditions and effluent discharge eliminated through integration by‐product recovery. A target 2 tonnes (tonne = metric ton 1000 kg) per hectare jatropha...
Abstract Perennial halophytes are known to be one of the most influential parameters in coastal ecosystem affecting processes. The aim this study was investigate changes soil microbial community structure and enzyme activities different halophyte‐covered soils ( Arthrocnemum indicum , Aeluropus lagopoides Heleochloa setulosa Suaeda nudiflora ) with control (un‐vegetated) that were collected three seasons (rainy, winter summer) from intertidal Gujarat, India. Soil assessed using phospholipid...
Soil quality improvement is critical to any rehabilitation programme in dry land degraded ecosystems. This study reports on the impact of cultivation Jatropha curcas with or without soil amendments structural stability, and carbon nitrogen content a Entisol under western India. Cultivation resulted 11% average increase mean weight diameter 2% macro-aggregate turnover. phosphorus- any-amendment improved stability relative nearby native vegetation. Regression analysis showed significant...
In order to increase our understanding of the interaction soil-halophyte (Salicornia brachiata) relations and phytoremediation, we investigated aboveground biomass, carbon fixation, nutrient composition (N, P, K, Na, Ca, Mg) S. brachiata using six sampling sites with varying characteristics over one growing season in intertidal marshes. Simultaneously, soil concentrations were also estimated. There was a significant variation contents spatially (except pH) as well temporally. Nutrient...
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a common single-use plastic that accumulated in the environment because of its non-degradable characteristics. In recent years, microbes from different environments were found to degrade plastics and suggested their capability under varying environmental conditions. However, complete degradation still void for large-scale implications using lack knowledge about genes pathways intricate biodegradation process. present study, growth adherence marine Bacillus...
Multidrug-resistant fungal infections have become much more common in recent years, especially immune-compromised patients. Therefore, researchers and pharmaceutical professionals focused on the development of novel antifungal agents that can tackle problem resistance. In continuation to this, a series pyrazole-bearing pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione derivatives (4a-4o) been developed. These compounds screened against Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger, clavatus. The synthesized...
